Down to Earth Page #10
Another G-Shock done | In your Benz
Another dime piece | That you can show all your friends
You can call me crazy | say I'm insecure
But I don't wanna be | just another girl
What if I was white | Skin the same color as Eminem
With blond hair and blue eyes | The whole shebang
I know one thing, police | wouldn't always be watchin' me
Pullin' me over for nothing | Constantly jockin' me
Yellow Cabsin the city
I wouldn't need collateral | to buy property if I was white
Wouldn't matter | If I was rich or poor
Security wouldn't follow me around the | store like I'm gonna steal somethin'
Because I'm black, I rob
And automatically assume | I ain't got no job
On my own land | Feel like an immigrant
If I was white, I wouldn't have | thought O.J. was innocent
If I was white, What if he was white | What if he was white
- Yo, think about that for a minute | - What if he was white
- Wow | - What if he was white
- What if he was white, white, white | - What if he was white
- What if he was white | - What if he was black
What if he was white
- What if he were white | - What if he was white, white, white
If I was white, it'd be | a different world for me
If I was white, hmm | What shade would I be
Would I be redneck or skinhead | preppy or high-class
You'd probably live in a trailer park | And be white trash
In any case, there'd be | an illside, right
But there's a good and a bad | side of bein' white
What's up, my brother, De La Soul Pete | I have two left feet
Even if I was white | I'd still have a better chance
Is it a myth or would I | really have a little
If I was white | I'd probably listen to hard rock
And cover my ears | Whenever I heard hip-hop
What if he was white | What if he was white
- What if he was white | - What if he was white
What if he was white | What if he was white, white, white
- What if he was white | - What if he was white
What if he was white
Mm, what if he was white
- What if he were white, white, white | - Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
If I was white, I probably | wouldn't even think the same
I'd watch tennis and golf | And bet on hockey games
Wear suits and ties | And go to work everyday
If I was white I couldn't live | Around my way
And there probably wouldn't | Never even be an Amish
Smokin' on a Marlboro | Instead of a Newport
I'd live in Long Island | Instead of New York
If I was white | I probably couldn't dunk
'Cause everybody know | white men can't jump
And I probably wouldn't be able | To go to the Tree Spot
'Cause all them dreads | would think I'm a cop
If he was white | What if he was white
What if he was white | What if he was white
- Yo, you can't even say that | - What if he was white
What if he was white | What if he was white
What if he was white, white, white | white, white, white, white, white
Yo, what if I was white
